Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 12-inch pizza pan or a 9x13-inch baking pan. Press the dough to fit the pan.

Step 2

Sprinkle the dough with 1 tablespoon for sugar.

Step 3

In a bowl of a mixer, whip the cream cheese, vanilla, ½ cup sugar, and egg until smooth.

Step 4

Spread the cream cheese mixture over the crust and as close to the edge as you can without it running over.

Step 5

Bake for 30 minutes or until the cream cheese mixture is set and the edge of the crust is lightly browned.

Step 6

Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool 20 to 30 minutes before topping with the pie filling. Carefully spread the pie filling evenly over the cream cheese mixture.

Step 7

Serve with whipped cream or ice cream. Refrigerate leftovers.
